After Thanksgiving my Master took me on my first extended trip. He rented a yacht and we cruised the Caribbean for two months. The company makes some very convincing passports. Some of the stops were really beautiful. One was a elite nude beach. Essentially to had to be a multimillionaire just to access the beach. I could not believe the celebrities I saw sunning themselves in their birthday suits. I can't name any names but a very popular male star is hung like a horse and it was refreshing to discover that some very famous babes have cellulite and cesarean scars. I even saw one or two other women wearing collars.
When I wasn't naked, which was a rare event, my Master dressed and undressed me. Probably the most fun was a nightie party in the Virgin Islands. My Master dressed in black silk pajamas and dressed me in the finest and skimpiest black attire. It was a teenage boy's wet dream, black stockings, barely there bra, panties that were essentially invisible and a diaphanous cover over all. My Master found me so attractive he took lots of pictures of me in the outfit.
That night he gave me his first gift. "You have been everything The Company advertised, Sweetness. I have really enjoyed getting to know you and you have been outstanding in bed. If I was not such a commitment-phoebe I MIGHT have asked you to stay on. In any event this is for you. It is yours to keep. Please wear it tonight and for the rest of the time that you are with me."
He gave me one of his sweetest kisses and presented me with a gift wrapped box. Inside was a platinum ring. It was studded with sapphires and diamonds spelling out the word "Sweetness". My Master had hung that pet name on me about four months into my time with him. It sounded better to my ears than "slave" ever did. I, on the other hand could NEVER refer to him as anything but "Master." Once I slipped up, uttered his first name, and had ended up in the cage. I gazed at the ring, it was gorgeous, I could not imagine the cost. Next to my very much missed wedding ring, it was the piece of jewelry I most treasured. I clasped it around my ankle and then clasped my Master in my arms. After a blow job of appreciation, I posed for more pictures.
When we returned home, I had the deepest tan of my life. My master worked hard for the first month. Utilizing all of his business acumen, he soon earned back every dime he had spent on the vacation. I attended to him and kept him happy between his stints at the computer and his tiring shouting into his microphones. It occurred to me around this time that we were a fully functioning couple beyond the simple master slave dynamic. George was still number one in my heart, but now, sometimes when I allowed myself to day dream, my Master occupied center stage. At night he was beginning to occupy my dreams as well. I hated the fact that I did not even have a picture of my husband. I began to fear that I would forget what he looked like, It was a silly fear, still it clung to me. The one image I returned to again and again was of running to and embracing George at the end of my tour of duty.
I knew that I had to keep my Master at least an arm's length distant from my soul. The Company literature was full of accounts of slaves who had bonded to their Masters so thoroughly they made a mess of their old lives. Very few of The Company's clients were interested in long term ownership. Even my Master, despite calling me "Sweetness" had already confided that he was looking forward to next year's model. "All I know for certain is that she will be a redhead." He informed me.
I knew that I did not want a situation where I was unhappy at home and longed for the touch of my Master. It helped that my Master was not really my type. Despite us achieving a certain compatibility, my Master's personality was far too prickly for my tastes. I loathed his silence as I just loved to talk. When my Master was in a good mood he was almost eerily silent. He would allow me to prattle on and on but I wanted to have a conversation. It was in those moments when I missed George most of all. George and I used to have such wonderful conversations!
My Master seemed to have few interests outside of his job. He had an eye for art and liked some sports. He had a fleet of antique and collectible automobiles. One of his kinks expressed itself in the fact that we had sex at least twice in every car he owned. He could rattle off the details of every car he had ever possessed, every house he had ever purchased, and the ins and outs of the derivatives market but getting him to talk about himself was virtually impossible. I did learn that he was originally from Central America and had come to The United States by way of Canada when he was fifteen. He made his first million at twenty one. I never got a handle on how much he was actually worth aside from a staggering amount. He took me to the opera and the ballet but didn't want to talk about them afterwards. I wanted to comment on the sets and the talents of the sopranos or the grace of the dancers. When I talked about those things he remained silent, his eyes focused upon my mouth. I got the distinct impression that the entire time he was listening politely, he was visualizing his cock in my mouth.
Still I came to respect him and built up something akin to affection for him. He praised me regularly and tolerated my taste in movies, so long as I sat naked on his lap while we watched in his home theater. He told me that I could keep most of the clothing he had purchased for me. In the bedroom, even though I was ALWAYS subservient, he gave me the impression that he respected me. He knew that I had a life to return to. He asked about George, and told me that he was a very lucky man. "I'm not the marrying type, Sweetness, but if I were you're the type of woman I would pick." were probably the kindest words he told me the entire time.
At the end of April I was informed by the company that I could create another message for my husband. I had no idea when it would be sent and that it would be censored. I felt it more than a little unfair that George could not send ME a letter. I wondered how many times he had had sex in my absence. I realized that I must have had sex with my Master several thousand times by now. I was not naive enough to believe that George would remain celibate; but I sincerely hoped he would not get seriously involved with someone.
In the back of my mind was the prospect that George would take his money and vanish and I would return to an abandoned house with a huge hole in my heart. I pushed that fear aside. I knew deep down that George was a one woman man and that one woman was me. I hoped that my letter would lift George's spirit. If he missed me half as much as I missed him...
